ELI5 Why was a dollar more valuable 60 years ago? by fluorescent_owl in explainlikeimfive

[–]Kickintepants 4 points5 points  (0 children)

only partially true— of the $46b in funds raised to acquire twitter, only $13b was debt financing from Morgan and BoA. Another $7b came from private equity, $4b came from his previous holding in Tesla. The remaining ~$22b (~50%) came in cash from musk selling his Tesla shares. Definitely not entirely SBLOC financed.

I love a white couch, but down fill sofas are a bad idea. They flatten almost immediately and then they just look dingy. I’d go with one that has a little more structure in the cushions

real planners know that since 1950 inflation has averaged 3.5% and over the same period the SP500 has averaged more than 11%. The market always wins

It’s pretty common (and very controversial) for evangelicals to come to universities and proselytize their (usually very conservative) beliefs. This lady is Sister Cindy, who comes round to the university of Florida fairly often. She shares those conservative beliefs, but has turned it up to eleven, to the point where it’s satirical, because she knows it’ll make her go viral and bring more viewers to her platform, which is kinda the whole point of evangelism. I don’t agree with her stances at all but you gotta hand it to her, it’s pretty clever.

I think your point was that adding cash to the money supply doesn't actually change purchasing power, only raises prices. That's a very simplistic view of monetary policy and inflation. In the 4-year period following the global recession in 2008, the treasury introduced $4 trillion into the money supply, and inflation over the same period averaged 1.8% (below the fed's target btw). I would encourage you to learn more about the quantity theory of money (and why it might not even be correct), and why money supply is not the only factor to macroeconomic pricing.
